Event Information
Overview
The aim of this course is to help you understand and apply a user-friendly CBT assessment and change model -the Five Areas? Approach. This way of working communicates CBT principles in easy to understand and accessible language with a proven evidence based approach as an effective intervention for people experiencing depression. The content can be introduced within individual practice or team settings in a low cost way.
The course teaches you to use a series of written workbooks and worksheets that can be copied and used with your patients.
Worksheet handouts will be provided for you to cascade this training in your own team and to copy for use with patients.
The workshop covers key content from the Overcoming depression and low mood: a five areas approach book (and the older adult equivalent) – the former is freely available via libraries across England as part of the national book prescription scheme.
Attendees will have their choice of receiving either:
- The adult version of the book
- The older adult version of the book
The adult version of the book has been evaluated in a Plos One RCT, and is used as part of a National Programme across Canada with a published before-after data on over 10,000 patients. Delegates will receive a copy of the book which can be copied freely for use in your own personal clinical work and in teaching you offer to your team.
These newly acquired skills can be used by you and your team on a daily basis. It will promote shared working across a multi-disciplinary team by encouraging a consistent language with a shared understanding and problem focused engagement.
